Very nice build
Chassis and motor plate work look great. Any ideas for body and paint? Keep up the good work.

Well the only thing local is an 8th scale track so I might just have to slap in the strongest brushless set up I can get my hands on and launch this puppy
Or
just put some vintage electronics in it and launch it on the shelf

Thanks for the compliments guys, it took a lot of gathering parts to make this happen the way I wanted.

What's the plan for a shell Dave?
I know, I had to peel away from working on the house long enough to build it. As for the shell, I'm going to go with the SS shell I got from you (mrlexan's).

Okay, so since I'm opting out of the brushless set up
I fished these out of my stash for it instead. I think these should be period correct enough for it but if I'm wrong someone please chime in, thanks.

Great, any knowledge on the servo? I believe Jason confirmed with Kent one time that it was used in the early 90's but that's all I have to go on.

WOW!
I cant believe how cool this build came out...i have to say im not a buggy guy but this just made my jaw drop.
I love the two tone and the period correct items.
I would be scared to run it....you should have built TWO!!!!
Awesome build so far!
